    Need Advice Regarding Tip Size / Diameter

    True but I was referring to how much off center left or right specifically. Most don't consider above and below as English.

    Need Advice Regarding Tip Size / Diameter

    I think the bigger problem less advanced players applying english is using too much. It doesn't take that much with a good stroke and follow through.

    You know what, I'm gonna throw you this little nugget, just cause I like you. See if you can get the point, finally. This is illustrating just a simple 1 rail bank, but if you can imagine more table you could certainly imagine more rails. It's exactly the same principle regardless. And don't...

    I don't know that he imagines a pocket along the rail and I'm sure I never said he did.
